Kodbale / Kadboli

Kodbale
Festivals are all about good food, right? I love both savory snacks and sweets like Rava Ladoo made during Diwali. This year, one of the crunchy snacks I made was Kadboli. Some call this gluten free ring shaped snack as Kodbale.

Ingredients:
Rice Flour - 2 cups
Split Dalia/Phutane/Roasted Chana Dal - 1/2 cup
Unsalted Butter/Loni - 1/4 cup (4 tbsp)
Carom Seeds/Ajwain/Owa - 1 tsp
Sesame Seeds/Til - 1 tsp
Turmeric/Haldi - 1/2 tsp
Cayenne Pepper/Red Chilli Powder - 1 tsp
Sugar - 1 tsp
Salt
Oil

How to prepare Kadboli:
  • Grind split dalia, carom seeds, sesame seeds to a fine powder in a blender/mixer. In case, you are wondering what is Phutane, below is a picture.
Phutane or Dalia
  • Add butter in a dry microwave safe bowl. Microwave it for 30 seconds so that the butter melts. Alternatively, you can melt it in a pan on a stove top.
  • In a mixing bowl, add melted butter, rice flour, ground dalia powder, turmeric, cayenne pepper, salt and sugar. Mix all the ingredients well. Now add hot water little by little to form a soft dough. You will need about 3/4 cup water.
  • Take a small ball of the dough and roll them between palms. Shape it like a ring as shown in the picture below.
  • Form 3 or 4 rings and deep fry them. Remove them from medium hot oil when the bubbling of oil decreases. Let them cool and taste for salt, sugar and chilli powder. If kodbali breaks in oil, add more rice flour to the dough. Repeat the same for the dough.
Kadboli
Store Crunchy crispy Kodbali in an airtight container after cooling.

Naval Kol Bhaji / Kohlrabi Stir-fry

Green Kohlrabi called as Navalkol in Marathi and Navilkosu in Kannada, belongs to the cabbage family.  My Mom used to make this stir fry very often.  Just like cabbage, this vegetable in available in two colors - green and purple.  I was quite hesitant about the purple one, as I haven't seen that back in India.  Anyway, I picked the green bulbs and Navalkohl Bhaji with Chana Dal was part of our healthy vegetarian meal today.

Indian Dal / Lentils

Lentils, known as Dal are a staple in an Indian diet, especially vegetarian. For me, dal is comfort food. 5 different dal varieties - Toor, Moong, Chana, Masoor and Urad are commonly used in Indian sweet and savory delicacies. You can cook dal with just one kind or a mix of two or more. I generally cook dal with 1:1 Toor and Moong dals. But then, we like Panchmel or Panchratna Dal too, which is made of all five. Most dal recipes have Toor dal as the primary ingredient. It is also known as Toovar or Arhar dal or Split Pigeon Peas . Some of our family favorite dal recipes are Dalitoy (Konkani Dal)  Tadka Dal Among all lentils, moong dal and masoor dal take lesser time to cook. Moong dal is also known as Split Green Gram or Split Mung Bean . Moong dal is also used in making sweet dishes like Mung Dal Kheer  Mung Dal Puranpoli Chana dal is also known as Split Bengal Gram or Split Chickpeas . Chana Dal takes a little more time to cook as compared to toor dal....
